Shielded RJ45 Jack for Industrial Ethernet — 8P8C, Right-Angle, Through-Hole
The TE Connectivity 5406298-1 is a shielded modular jack wired 8p8c — the standard pinout for 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet. Shielding is handled by an EMI finger on the shell — not just a foil wrap — which grounds the cable braid directly to the board's ground plane through the through-hole anchor legs. That matters for passing radiated emissions in industrial controllers, PoE switches, or any data-comm port that shares an enclosure with switching supplies. A built-in board guide on the underside helps align the jack during hand or wave-solder placement — a small detail that saves a bent-pin rework when the assembler is working blind.
